Flow control techniques and aerodynamic improvements developed at the Georgia Institute of Technology could save the U.S. trucking industry hundreds of millions of gallons of fuel per year. Recent ...

Abstract: The safe flight of small unmanned aircraft or drones in gusty environments, the use of aeroelastically sensitive aircraft for communications and remote networking, and the efficient ...

Scientists show a bionic approach combining features of a seagull's wing with an engineered flow control accessory, known as a Gurney flap, can greatly improve wind turbine performance. To achieve the ...

For the first time, engineers at MIT have developed a comprehensive, physics-based model that accurately represents the airflow around rotors even under extreme conditions. The new model enables the ...

We research and develop key technologies for climate-friendly and energy-efficient transport systems of the future. The Institute of Aerodynamics and Flow Technology is the main institution for fluid ...

For those of you that don’t already know this, wind tunnel testing were initially aimed at conducting aerodynamic research mostly involving aircrafts. The first enclosed wind tunnel for aeronautical ...

Naval architecture and engineering firm Alan C. McClure Associates (ACMA) has recently completed a wind flow analysis on an offshore structure using its Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software ...

You might expect an automaker with Honda’s reputation to have all the latest tools for developing cars—including new battery electric vehicles (BEVs)—at its fingertips. But for years, the Tokyo-based ...
